Possible meeting of Lavrov and Stoltenberg in Munich being discussed

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov may hold a bilateral meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexei Meshkov has said.

"Indeed, the possibility of organizing such a meeting is being discussed," Meshkov said in an interview with Interfax on Tuesday, after being asked whether Lavrov's meeting with Stoltenberg was being planned on the sidelines of the security conference in Munich.

During such a potential meeting, Lavrov and Stoltenberg could also discuss the possibility of holding a Russia-NATO Council session, the deputy minister said.

"I do not rule out that Lavrov and Stoltenberg may outline something during their possible meeting," he added.
